A TRANSPORT REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
DRIVE
April 1, 2026
A transport refrigeration system comprises a transportation refrigeration unit and a generator (13) coupled to a wheel axle (7A) of the transport refrigeration system via a coupling (11). The generator (13) is configured to be driven to generate electricity by rotation of the wheel axle (7A) and to supply that electricity to the transportation refrigeration unit. The coupling (11) that couples the generator and the wheel axle is a magnetic coupling (11).
